WILLIM N.` REGAN, OF JERSEY CITY, NEW JERSEY.

I sTovE.

To all 'who-m it may cmwern: Be it known that I, IVILLIAM N. REGAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Jersey City, in the county of Hudson and State of New Jersey, have invented new and useful Improvements in Stoves, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to gas stoves or the like' of the portable type, and has particular application to the burner construction which is such as 4to cause the air to circulatc through channelswhich will heat the air lto i a very high degreel in short order, thusconsuming a minimum of fuel.

'The nature and advantages of the invention will be better understood whenthe following detail description is taken in conv7nection with the accompalnying dra'wings,

'the invention residing in .the construction,

combinatlon` and arrangement of parts as claimed. v o

In the drawings forming part of this speciication like numerals of reference indicate similar parts in the several views and Fig. 2 is a horizontal sectional view taken i through the stove immediately above the burner. z o

Fig. 3 1s a sectional vlew taken on 11ne of Fig. 1 looking in the direction of the arrows.

i on line 5 5 of F ig. 11 lookingv in the direc-.

tion of the arrows..

Referring to the drawings in detail, 1'0 indicates the base of'the stove supported by the legs V11, the burner being disposed immediately above the base while arranged above the burner is Vthe drum 12. The burner proper includes a mixing chamber 13 with the bottom of which the supply pipe 14 communicates. The supply pipe depends from the bottom of the mixing chamber through the base 10 and has a laterally disposed extension 15. A valve 17 is fitted within the extension 16 and includes an arm 18 which is connected with an operating rod 19 which operatesv through an opening in the base 10. Supported upon the mixing Chamber 13 is a distributing Specification of Letters latent. Patented Nov. 30, 1920 Applicationlfilea November 17',` 1918. serial No. 888,688. 7

vided with a central opening, and a circum-.

ferential series of small openings 28 for a purpose to be hereinafter set forth. Rising from the distributing chamber 20'is a rod 29 which supports a baflle plate 30. ,Depending from the plate 30 is aperforated annular wall 31 which terminates within the inner'ring 21 'of therburner. The mixing Chamber 13 is provided with air inlet openings 32 adjacent the lower end thereof.

VRising from the horizontally disposed extension 15 of the fuel supply pipe is a pilot tube 3t'which passes between the'mixing chamber 13 and the perforated annulus 25 terminating in close proximity to the burner proper. It will be noted'thatgthetube 34 communicates vwith the supply pipe in advance of'the valve 17 so that the pilot willremain burning .irrespective of the position of. the valve. Arranged at a point immediately above the casing 26 is a ring 35.

In practice, the valve 17 is opened through the vinstrumentality of'the rod 19, thus admitting fuel to the mixing chamberl. The

' requisite amount of air enters the Chamber throughthe openings 32, commingling with the fuel ,forming a perfect combustion. The fuel passes from the mixingchamber into the distributingfchamber 20,from where itpasses throughv the tubes 23 ,between the spaced members 21 and 22 of the burner. This provides for a perfect blue flame. A large quantity of air enters the casing 26 from under the ring 35, the air passing through the openings 28, and thence down between the. casing 26 and the drum 10 tol a point where it is admitted to the space between the mixing Chamber 13 and the drum 10, through the perforated annulus 25. It is of course understood that the drum 10, casing 26 as well as the mixing chamber are heated from the burner, andV as the air circulates around these parts it is consequently heated to a very high degree. The air upon entering the space between the mixing chamber 13 and the drum passes upwardly in this spacethrough the burner proper, 'strik-V ing against the bafiie plate 30. This plate 'defiects the air, causing it to pass into the room through the perforatlons in the wall- 31. In this manner, the air is heated to a maximum degree inl qnlck order, and with the consumption of a 'minimum amount of fuel.

lVhile I have shown and described what I i ing said inner member, a mixing chamber disposed within the inner member, a fuel supply 'pipe leading into said chamber, a valve in said pipe, and a distributing chamber establishing:communication between the mixing Chamber and the space' between said members. i

A burner comprising aninner member,- anouter member spaced from and surrounding said inner member, a mixingchamber disposedV centrally within the inner member, a fuel supplypipe leading into said chambe'r,,avalve in said plpe, and a distributing ChamberV associated with the mixing cham'- ber, and establishing communication between the latter and the space between said members'z 'p i* f 3. A burner comprising an inner mem-V ber, .an outer member 'spaced from and'survroun'ding-v said inner member, a mixing Chamber disposedV within p the inner member, a-fuel supply pipe leading-into said cham.- ber, the walll of said chamber having a plurality of; lspaced openings adj acent its point i of'ennnection with thefuelsupply pipe, a

6. A burner: including spaced inner and outer members, a mixing Chamber ,partly arrangedV within the inner member, a fuel supply pipe leading into said mixing chamber,thew`all of said chamber having spaced openings, a distributingchamber associated with the mixing Chamber, and establishing communicationbetween the latter and the space between said members, a perforated annulus surroundingithe outer member, and a casing concentrically disposed. in spaced relation to the perforated annulus and providino' an air inlet at the upper end thereof.
